Watermelon-Jalapeno Ice Pops

"On Saturday he ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice cream cone, one pickle, one slice of swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one cupcake and one slice of watermelon. That night he had a stomach ache."
If this combination sounds weird to you then don't make it. If it sounds good you might like it. Husband took about 3 bites (forced by me) and didn't want any more while I finished the popsicle and still wasn't sure how I felt about it. It wasn't spicy but you could definitely taste the jalapeno. I would probably give it 2 out of 5 stars.
